Passie première | Monsieur Aznavour
Musical biopic about the life of iconic French-Armenian chansonnier Charles Aznavour.
MONSIEUR AZNAVOUR is a tribute to one of the icons of French chanson, Charles Aznavour, who was born in Paris in 1924, the son of Armenian refugees. Focusing on the period from his early years to his international breakthrough, the film biography shows the quest for recognition of a determined artist. The film highlights his unique ability to capture the essence of Parisian life in his songs. Each song outlines a part of his life, his struggles and triumphs, against a backdrop of social and cultural changes in France and the rest of the world in the 1950s.
MONSIEUR AZNAVOUR stands out for its realistic and moving approach, highlighting not only the artist on stage, but also the man behind the legend. The film will premiere on 12 December, simultaneously with the re-release of François Truffaut’s 1960 TIREZ SUR LE PIANISTE, which stars Charles Aznavour in the lead role. (bw)
